The Four Agreements

 

My first read of the year! I may have to read this once a year so I can remember; 1. Be impeccable with my word, 2. don't take these ho*s personally, 3. don't assume shet and 4. try my best to follow the other 3. 

I have been trying my best to follow these 4 agreements since January and they do help! 

Break down: 

1. Be impeccable with your word. Just stop talking shet about yourself and other people. Also, you have to mean what you say and you have to say what you mean. (Trying to please everyone sacrifice your own needs. If you know you know). If you're doing this you can do the next one because you know you're not out her spewing BS. 

2. Don't take anything personally. If someone is tripping, then that's them. Trust me, it's not me, it's you. Everyone is fighting internal battles, don't engage in a battle that's not yours. If someone has a problem with you, it's because they have a problem with themselves. . 

3. Don't assume anything. Really, you don't know anyone like that. Be impeccable with your word. Say what you need. Ask for clarification. Don't assume every has the same decency and common sense as you. 

4. Try your best. It's the only thing you can do. Remember! You best will vary. When you wake up in the morning and feel good your best will be different than when you wake up in the morning feeling like a sack of bricks. But no matter how you feel, do the best you can. 

I give this book 4 stars. 🟍🟍🟍🟍 These are basic principals anyone can follow. 

Be well. Be you!
